If you are an international student and would like to get some international study experience at a German university why not take a semester or year out and study at Hamburg University of Applied Sciences. Each semester we welcome international guest students from all over the world.

Hamburg University of Applied Sciences (HAW Hamburg) offers a wide range of interesting programmes in engineering, life sciences, business, computer science, design, media and social sciences. A small number of these programmes have modules in English or can be completed without knowledge of German, so language need not be a barrier.
